Re: Thailand's blind children's orchestra - from BBC news website today for anyone interested.
Thanks for posting. I think it's great that these kids have discovered something they really enjoy doing. And being blind need not be a barrier to a musical career. Dame Evelyn Glennie is the world's finest percussion soloist - and blind. Andrea Bocelli sings occasionally in opera performances - and is blind.
I wonder if the elephants who inspired the kids make up the famous Thai elephant orchestra. No, this is no joke. It's been going for at least 20 years and has made 3 CDs.
